Change of Command in the German Deployed Contingent

Written by Alexander Strelau

On 15 September 2010 Lieutenant General Glatz, Chief Joint Operations Command, handed over command of the German Deployed Contingent from Brigadier General Bischof to Brigadier General Giesa.
During the ceremony in the Helicopter Hangar of Camp Butmir, Lieutenant General Glatz contemplated the successful past and future cooperation of the European forces within the EUFOR Althea mission. The outgoing Chief of Staff, General BISCHOF, looked back on almost seven months full mutual assistance and fulfilling duty. He addressed the German soldiers and thanked them for their consistent professionalism. The ceremony was accompanied by music from the Bosnian Music-Corps.
